Just a breaking news report over KTLA so far

BATON ROUGE - Police have closed streets between Baton Rouge Police Headquarters and I-12 where law enforcement officers have been shot.
A witness told WBRZ News 2, a man was dressed in black with his face covered shooting indiscriminately when he walked out between a convenience store and car wash across from Hammond Air Plaza. Shots were fired around 9 a.m. Sunday.
The story you’re mentioning, about arresting 3 who they suspected had intent, is from the 12th. This current story is just developing, still “active”.
Shift change?

Obama Meets With BLM Just Days After Dallas Murders
According to The Hill, Black Lives Matter activist DeRay Mckesson attended a meeting with President Obama which was designed to help mend frayed ties between law enforcement and the communities they serve.
“We are at the @WhiteHouse right now for a 3-hour convening w/ President Obama re: the recent events in #BatonRouge & across the country,” Mckesson tweeted Wednesday.
Mckesson wrote he will be joined by fellow activist Brittany Packnett and Minneapolis-based Black Lives Matter leader Mica Grimm.

WTF?
Just broke on Fox at 11 am. just a sentence.
“Three police officers are feared dead after a shooting in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, the mayor-president of East Baton Rouge Parish Kip Holden told CNN. “There is still an active scene. They are investigating. Right now we are trying to get our arms around everything. It’s just been one thing after another,” Holden said.” -CNN
Headline should read “in Baton Rouge”
1968 and worse. At least we don’t have a large war going at the same time - yet.
Fox on politics again.

A very large manhunt began immediately.
There is limited information available. A police spokesperson was not ready to release specifics.
Check back for updates.
How many cops killed under Obama? How many under previous presidents? This is getting out of hand.

I see Don Lemon’s Townhall which was supposed to create unity but started off with the preformed conclusion that cops are racist and had a crowd and panel who was nearly all pro Black Lives matter was a success.
I juust saw CNN - they broke in to mention it
